If you have not already sent in your items, please send them on Monday. Thank you!! Please continue to review sight words each day. We have found that some of the children who have finished all of the cards do not remember all of the sight words. Please continue to practice and to read aloud each night. Ask your child questions about the books they read. Ask them to retell the events, how characters feel, and what connections they can make to the story. When reading non-fiction books, ask about main idea and details. If your child is sick, please help us stop the spread of germs and keep your child at home. If you child has a fever, they need to stay at home until they are fever free for at least 24 hours (without the help of medication). We are encouraging children to wash their hands throughout the day. Thank you for your help! Have a wonderful weekend!

Thank you to the volunteers who shared their time and information about their country with us!! Please make sure you return the enrollment information for next year. This is very important in order to help us make plans for next year. On March 10th, we are going on a field trip to the Teaching Museum. Please be sure to return the signed permission slip. On March 2nd, we will celebrate Dr. Seuss with reading rotations in each Kindergarten class. We will need a few supplies for this special day. Please keep an eye out for a Sign Up Genius for needed supplies. Picture Day is on Wednesday. All children will have their picture taken and you will have a chance to either purchase the individual pictures or return them when they come in. We will also take a class picture. If you want to order a class picture, you need to order it before Picture Day. Order forms went home this week. Thank you for the beautiful flowers and cards for Teacher Appreciation last week!
